Interior Tank Cleaning Process: 4 Professional Steps

Our Tank Cleaning Station in Aspropyrgos provides professional CIP interior cleaning for road tankers and transport tanks. Using a 360° washing head and a controlled step-by-step process, we clean the tank interior, manhole and valves according to the requirements of the previous load.

Step 1

Manhole Cleaning

The process begins with the thorough cleaning of the manhole cover, sealing surface and surrounding access area. These points are cleaned before the 360° washing head enters the tank.

High-pressure water helps remove external residues and prepares the tank opening for the next stage of the interior cleaning process.

Hot Water Rinsing

The 360° washing head is positioned inside the tank and the interior surfaces are rinsed with hot water. The rotating water jets reach the internal walls and help loosen remaining deposits.

Hot-water rinsing prepares the tanker for the cleaning-agent application. The duration and water temperature are selected according to the previous material and the required washing procedure.

Cleaning Agent Application

After the initial rinsing, the selected cleaning agent is applied across the tank's interior surfaces through the 360° washing system.

The appropriate product and washing cycle depend on the characteristics of the material previously transported. This controlled stage helps break down residues before the final rinsing process.

Cold Water Rinsing & Valve Cleaning

During the final stage, the tank is thoroughly rinsed with cold water to remove the cleaning agent and any remaining residues from the interior surfaces.

At the same time, the tanker valves are cleaned separately. This stage focuses on critical points of the system and prepares the tanker for final inspection and washing documentation.

Final Step

Final Inspection & Washing Certificate

Once the agreed cleaning procedure has been completed, the tanker proceeds to the final inspection stage.

Washing documentation is issued with the relevant service details, providing a clear record of the completed cleaning procedure.

Interior Tank Cleaning FAQ

Find answers to the most common questions about professional CIP interior tanker cleaning at Velvet Truck Spa in Aspropyrgos.

What does the interior tank cleaning process include?

The process may include manhole cleaning, hot-water rinsing, cleaning-agent application, cold-water rinsing, valve cleaning, final inspection and the issuing of washing documentation.

Is the same washing procedure used for every tanker?

No. The washing procedure varies according to the material previously carried, its characteristics, the amount of residue and the condition of the tank. Each tanker is assessed before the cleaning process begins.

What is a 360° washing head?

A 360° washing head is positioned inside the tanker and distributes pressurised water across the internal surfaces. Its rotating operation helps reach different areas of the tank during the rinsing and cleaning cycle.

Why is hot water used during tank cleaning?

Hot-water rinsing helps loosen deposits and prepares the internal surfaces for the next cleaning stage. The water temperature and duration are selected according to the previous material and the required washing procedure.

How is the appropriate cleaning agent selected?

The cleaning agent is selected after considering the material previously transported, the residue characteristics and the condition of the tank. The same product is not automatically used for every tanker.

Are the tanker valves cleaned during the process?

Yes. Valve cleaning can be carried out alongside the final cold-water rinsing stage to remove remaining cleaning agent and residues from critical points of the tanker system.

Is a washing certificate provided?

After the agreed cleaning procedure has been completed, washing documentation is issued with the relevant service details and a record of the completed washing process.
